Sutton Park railway station was a railway station in Sutton Coldfield, Warwickshire, (in Birmingham since 1974), England, on the Midland Railway's Sutton Park Line. The station opened in 1879, and closed to passengers in 1965.[2] Goods facilities had closed earlier on 7 December 1964 but the goods shed was taken over for use beyond this date by the adjacent Post Office parcels depot.[3] The line remains open for freight trains.
